Some people just get a little too excited. Get well soon Cindy!

This shouldn’t be making me laugh nearly as hard as it is.
To: Berlin_Freeper
Her arm is in a sling. Ouch!

Probably a Democrat.
Send him on the road to one of Nancy's book signing appearances. One handshake and she'll have to stamp her autograph on the truckloads of books she's selling.

Did she sit in the ER for over an hour?

This is not funny and no accident. I once had a encounter with a person who thought doing this was a display of superiority. He almost broke my hand and did display he was a complete fool.

Whoever crunched Cindy McCain’s hand may have been a moonbat infiltrator.
I’ve learned - it’s instinctive now - if somebody attempts a crunch handshake, I crunch back until they jerk their hand away.
Geez, is all civility dead?

Yeah, it would, then I would know that she knows it really sucks to sit in the ER, especially when you have internal bleeding like my husband did.

Nitwits! You NEVER shake a lady’s hand any tighter than she grips.

I had that to happen to me when I met a new boss. I had broken my hand a few years before and was blessed with a weather indicator. Anyway, when this man latched on to my hand and held on like a terrier, I never let on that it hurt. After a couple of minutes, he finally turned loose. My hand hurt terribly for a couple of hours, but believe it or not, I have lost my weather predicting abilities. Go figure. :-)

I've experienced the same thing more than once. I no longer offer my hand most of the time.
